What broadband speeds can I expect to receive?

We deliver a resilient and secure 1Gbps or 10Gbps fibre connection into your building providing huge bandwidth for your business. Bandwidth is shared between the users but we actively monitor distribution and make sure there is plenty to go around.

Check out www.speedtest.net to see the speeds you can expect. If you require it there is a dedicated service available but we find customers just don’t need it as our OSIA Open, Secure, Internet, Access over delivers on upload and download speeds.

We will happily talk you through all of the security processes we have in place and how we protect your business from Denial of Service attacks and evil twins and all of that techy stuff. Some of our customers use it to promote their business and so we’re happy to tell you more when you are ready.
